Tour prices
The price level for tours to Sochi depends on the season. If your goal is to relax on the beaches, then the best time to visit Sochi is July-end of September, and skiers should head here in December-end of March.
Prices in Sochi increase markedly during the summer season. So, when compared with the low season, from April to May, vouchers rise in price by about 20%, and from June to August - by 45-80%. This is due to the fact that in the summer months a large number of tourists rush to Sochi, and show business stars also come here with touring programs. It should be noted that the increase in the cost of vouchers is observed during the period of the international film festival "/>
A slight decrease in the cost of tours in Sochi is observed in the low season, which lasts from mid-November to early December, as well as from late March to mid-April.
On a note
When going on the road, you should put in your suitcase beach accessories (swimsuit / swimming trunks, headwear, comfortable shoes, sunscreen), a small first aid kit (put there the most necessary medicines prescribed by your doctor, as well as drugs for poisoning, antipyretic and disinfectants - everything else can be bought locally, at the pharmacy).
In the summer, you should not take warm clothes with you, but an umbrella is worth grabbing, since heavy downpours can fall on the city at this time of year.
Since old water pipelines function in the city, and particles of plaque from pipes can get into the water, on vacation in Sochi, you should not neglect the filtration and boiling of water, and even better, use bottled water.
